The Cornelius Animal Shelter has pets available for adoption. For more information about these or other adoptable pets, please contact the Cornelius Police Department. The shelter is open Tuesday-Friday 11:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. and 5:00-7:00 p.m. It is also open on Saturdays from 9:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. Read on for more about this week’s pets.Cleo is an adorable buff and white pit bull terrier mix puppy that was picked up as a stray on May 15th. We think she is about 6-8 months old. She has a sweet personality, is very affectionate and gets along well with other dogs. She would be a good fit for someone who wants a jogging buddy and could give her lots of exercise. She has adorable markings on her face and looks like she might have a little shepherd mixed in. Please stop by and meet Cleo. She deserves a loving home with plenty of room for her to play.
Sunny is an intact, orange male tabby who was picked up as a stray in Cornelius in May. He was wearing a little black collar with a bell. No one has come forward to claim him yet, so he is currently available for adoption. He is friendly and curious and patiently waiting for a new home. He is up to date on all his shots and will be neutered prior to adoption. If you would like to meet Sunny, please stop by the shelter.
